、ターゲット2からほぼ垂直にスパッタされた粒子5だ
けを取り出し、残りを筒10の側壁にトラップさせる。The chamber 1 is grounded, the target and the honeycomb cylinder 10
During this period, argon gas is introduced, impedance matching is performed by a matching circuit 9, and a radio frequency (RF) power source 10 is turned on to generate plasma. However, here, the target may be a conductor or an insulator. Now, assuming that aluminum is used, positive argon ions in the plasma collide with the target and sputter aluminum. The ejected aluminum particles 5 have an angular distribution. Therefore, the second
By providing a honeycomb-shaped tube 10 (which is a collection of thin tubes, and the shape may be square or cylindrical) as shown in the figure, only the particles 5 that have been sputtered almost vertically from the target 2 are taken out, and the rest are removed from the tube. Trap it on the side wall of 10.

とが可能となる。In this way, directionally controlled aluminum particles 5 are formed. Next, for the method of obliquely rotating the susceptor 3, two motors 15 are prepared. One (15a) is the susceptor 3
The other one (15b) is the cam 1.
3, which are connected by gears 16. Now, the motor 15a is rotated, and the susceptor 3 is rotated through the gear 16 and the rotating shaft. Three legs from the susceptor 3 are connected to a cam 13, and the cam follower 14 moves along the groove of the cam 13 to cause vertical movement and clouding, thereby enabling the susceptor 3 to rotate diagonally. However, the universal cylinder 11 is required to ensure smooth rotation and vertical movement of the susceptor 3. When the cam 13 is fixed, the location where the susceptor 3 rises (descends) is constant. Therefore, by rotating the cam 13 with the motor 15b, it becomes possible to freely rotate the cam 13 diagonally.
